Thank you for your input!! I'll really be thinking about what you've said.

Thanks for the reply. :) I guess my question might have seemed like a stupid one, but eating sick birds is something that I have never heard addressed before. However, if you should indeed never eat an animal that is diseased, then the question remains, when slaughtering any bird, how do you...

Happy Easter everyone!! HE IS RISEN!!! I hope everyone has a fantastic day!!

In the event that some of your birds get sick(and die or culled). Are the sick birds now unfit for human consumption? If so how do you dispose of their carcasses?

So in the event that some of the birds do get sick, is the disease always terminal? Are the sick birds now unfit for human consumption? If so how do you dispose of they're carcasses? Thank you all for your responses!

Is it necessary that chicks(ordered or no) be vaccinated for Marek's Disease, or is it possible to take precautionary measures that would avoid exposing the chicks to chemicals and still give them ample protection against disease?

My guess is 3,552. :)

Thanks! That's very helpful. :) Is it necessary that each chick is vaccinated for Marek's Disease, or is it possible to take precautionary measures that would avoid exposing the chicks to chemicals and still give them ample protection against disease?

Can anyone tell me if efowl.com and cackle hatchery are reputable sites to order chicks from? Thank you! --Jem
